Away We Go

005 - My Experience Traveling with an Anxiety Disorder


Listen Later

Hey friends, and welcome to Kayla on the Road:the podcast. This is episode 5 and this episode is all about anxiety. I’m not talking about the anxiety that travelers get when they are in a new and different place, in the grand scheme of things we’d all be better off calling it travelers worry or travelers fear. I’m talking about the all consuming feeling of weight and discomfort that comes with the constant worrying associated with an anxiety disorder. For the longest time I was afraid that my anxiety was going to stand in the way of my traveling, after all, I hadn’t experienced an anxiety attack during the first 20 years of my life, and if I had, I hadn’t recognized it as such. Let’s get one thing straight right off the bat, there is no one way to handle anxiety, I simply want to share my story and my experience with you so that if you are feeling similar you can take the steps to properly prepare yourself to travel as someone who suffers from an anxiety disorder. I truly believe that it is possible to get off the couch and onto the road without letting anxiety control your every move.
